Merging

This page should be merged into the Structured_Light_3D_Scanner page. If nobody objects i will implement the merge. ALoopingIcon (talk) 14:36, 4 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I do not think it should be merged. A 3D version is a subset of this, adding a "see also" would be good, as would adding a secition on 3D scanning and a summary of the 3D article. Chaosdruid (talk) 01:16, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I also agree it should NOT be merged. While 3D scanning is a major use, structured light also has wider applications in 2D/3D position-sensing. Example is if structured light is projected onto a surface-plane (e.g. wall) then location and orientation of a roaming camera observing/imaging that wall (or a subset of it) may be determined.

Example Kinect

the Microsoft Kinect camera is an example for a structured light depth sensor not only for x-box, but also pc and other devices, that can now be found in your neighbours home. I think that this could be an example that people can relate to more easily than scanning fingerprints on a crime scene. Given the number of kinect sales it should be okay to mention this camera without advertising claims. I'll leave it up to you guys. -- Tue, 22.05.2012 09:39 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.176.181.132 (talk) 07:39, 22 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
